DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.4753
Abstract: Winter cover crops represent a land cover change that may sequester carbon in the soil and improve agricultural sustainability. Their adoption may also change the Earth's radiative balance and result in biophysical feedbacks to climate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jeq2.20217
Abstract: The Midwestern US is a highly productive agricultural region, and extended crop-free periods in winter/spring can result in nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) losses to waterways that degrade downstream water quality. Planting winter cover crops… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biocontrol.2020.104525
Abstract: Abstract Winter cover crops are often planted in temperate and subtropical environments. The residue from these cover crops may enhance suppression of plant-parasitic nematodes by providing alternative food sources for predators and parasites. The primary… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/ajgw/4271832
Abstract: The adoption of winter cover crops (CCs), to be terminated in spring, is gaining popularity in temperate climate viticulture. We evaluated the effects of two novel termination practices—interrow rolling (R) and subrow mulching (SRM)—on vine… read more here.
